Unity is the key. When we work against God we break all that He intended for our destinies and we allow the enemy to defeat us. We often forget when we are in the midst of our own “stuff”, that God has already won the battle. We choose to make our lives average when we could be succeeding, taking steps to become whole in Him. Instead, we spend our time thinking about our positions and ourselves. Life is much more than our day- to-day. When we dig deep into our purpose, we begin to see how the enemy shows up to stop us from anything deserving. What good is discord?
I believe God has begun to unveil a pattern to me as I read His word. I am finding that when anything good ever happened, it was because “those of old” were always in accord with one another. The Bible has a master design meant for us to follow. Often, man gets in the way of himself and his own succession. His transformation cannot occur when he is his own stumbling block. And for what I ask? It’s always for something temporary verses the eternal that has been promised to us by the Father. When, oh when will we learn?
A thought to ponder… God has given us this life. He breathed life into us. From the dust of the ground, He created us for His purpose. We have all read this or heard this at some point throughout our lives. If we know what God is telling us in Genesis 2:7, then why haven’t we applied these ancient words to our own lives? Do we think that the Bible does not apply to our world today? We are still a part of the story that has taken place so many years ago. The Bible is an ancient manual for us to follow. Those who have gone before us paved a way for us, making our paths clear and secure. The ones who achieved their assignments from the Lord were in accord with one another. They were in unification amongst themselves and the Father. How has it come to be that we have lost what has been given to us so freely? How can we get back to the road less traveled? Father, help us to see You and Your ways for us. Make us new and show us how to walk once again in accordance with Your plans that You have for us. Come Holy Spirit
